I know a lot of brewers on this forum don't bother doing a secondary. But for those of us who do:
How about this idea? Throw a small amount of corn sugar into the secondary to purge the headspace with CO2. If it's a small amount then perhaps it will calm down after a week or so (??), you have no oxygen in there, and you can settle the beer after that point.
I know it sort of sounds crazy because you're introducing activity to the step that is specifically designed to settle the beer, but if you let it settle out afterword perhaps that is a good idea.
Just a thought. Let me know what you think.
